# Payment Channels for Bitcore
A module for bitcore that implements Payment Channels. Payment channels (sometimes referred as micropayment channels) are a type of smart contracts that allow rapidly adjusting bitcoin transactions. This can be used to do trustless simultaneous payments with a service provider without the need of an intermediary, and some other applications.
See the main bitcore repo or the bitcore guide on Payment Channels for more information.
